No there is not.  In my humble opinion it's a *really* bad idea to implemen=
t=20
something that vulnarable to external attacks and buffer overflows inside t=
he=20
kernel.  The often claimed performance benefit can as easily be achieved wi=
th=20
accept filters (see esp. accf_http(9)) and kqueue(9).  There is really no=20
need to put this into the kernel.
